But he’s not even average atm. I’m scared to drop him cos he was so good last year, even a 5 game stretch again would be nice !

your second point is right on the money. i have sympathy for any kid who is going to be stuck playing Baller Beats instead of 2k13 after christmas this year. that would be horrible, but they can only blame themselves. should have added post moves to their game earlier, thus becoming more of an offensive threat. Like, “F*ck Santa, you better f*cking get me 2k13 and not that other sh*t this Christmas.”

Sat, 24 Nov 2012 19:54:00 +0000http://www.slamonline.com/online/?p=240485#comment-26512091. Who is the best team that the Lakers have beat? Brooklyn? Houston? The team is a mess.
2. Dwight looks like a kid who got NBA Baller Beats on Christmas instead of 2K13.
3. Jameer Nelson is severely underrated. Magic with Jameer: 4-2. Without: 1-5
4. Brook Lopez is still an atrocious rebounder. I seriously don’t understand it.
5. The Spurs look dangerous. No joke, a Memphis/San Antonio WCF isn’t out of the question.
6. I really want someone to punch Tom Heinsohn in his fat, corn-fed, messed-up-teeth, stupid face. Dude makes me mute my TV for Celtics games.
7. Great game by Parsons. However, his “improvement” this year seems to have more to do with increased minutes than actual skill improvement. I’m still hanging with Vasquez, Batum, Redick, and Kemba as most improved.
8. Kevin Love: the only T’Wolves starter with a negative +/- stat last night.
9. The Kings are so funny to watch. One minute, you’ll say “Yes! Do that more!” then literally the NEXT POSSESSION, you say, “Oh, what on earth was that?” Haven’t had a non-terrible coach since Rick Adelman. Seriously: Eric Musselman, Reggie Theus, Kenny Natt, Paul Westphal, Keith Smart. Since 2007.
10. Denver has quietly built a 3 game win streak. Think they’ll turn it around?
11. Speaking of quietly, Anderson Varejao also deserves consideration for MIP. Who knew he was averaging 14-14-3 on 52% shooting with only 1.6 turnovers?

Sat, 24 Nov 2012 18:36:00 +0000http://www.slamonline.com/online/?p=240485#comment-2651191I didn’t buy it when he was talking about how happy he was to be in LA. It’s early in the season, but I can see him leaving and signing with another team next summer so that he can be the guy and have an organization that is built around him.

Sat, 24 Nov 2012 18:01:00 +0000http://www.slamonline.com/online/?p=240485#comment-2651180I’m glad to see that brook lopez is learning to contribute offensively…and i think the rebounding will improve. he was fine before he had mono.

It’s nice to know the clippers are human. but what the f*ck is wrong with odom??

Memphis looks monstrous… but i don’t believe them.

with both the wizards and the cavs down for the count with their respective superstar pg’s injured, and with bynum out for philly… is there a chance charlotte sneaks in the playoffs?

Just how good is chandler parsons?

and does lance stephenson sort of remind you guys of tyreke evans with the moves he uses and such?

Sat, 24 Nov 2012 16:17:00 +0000http://www.slamonline.com/online/?p=240485#comment-2651160Man, what’s going on with Dwight? He hasn’t been able to establish position, and when he does, he gets stripped fairly often. He hasn’t rebounded well, nor being that force defensively – his covers on the pick n roll have been weak.

I know he’s still recovering of his back surgery, but he doesn’t look comfortable in LA. To me, he wanted to be the brightest star on a team, he wanted to be the “owner” of such team. And in LA, the team is Kobe’s, and Dwight does not feel that well about this.

Sat, 24 Nov 2012 15:48:00 +0000http://www.slamonline.com/online/?p=240485#comment-2651153Cosign the comments about Brook Lopez: I was shocked to see how many blocks he was averaging this year. His return has actually been by far the biggest contributor to the Nets becoming a good team.

I got blasted for it in the player rankings comments, but I suspected that last year wasn’t a total fluke for Deron Williams. His relatively slow start doesn’t surprise me. What does surprise me: Joe Johnson’s 15 PPG on 38.7% shooting. Those numbers will improve, but wow is he overpaid.
